Jumping Bean Experiment Lab Report
Abstract: This experiment will determine if jumping beans are alive. We tested two groups. Group A and B. We put them in two different areas. Three beans were put in a lit area and three were put in a shaded area. It was found that if the depending on how lit the area is the more movement we saw from the jumping bean. Therefore it can be said that jumping beans are alive and respond to stimuli.

Introduction: This Experiment “ Mexican Jumping Beans” focuses on how jumping beans respond to different conditions. The thing that makes these beans jump is a tiny moth larvae that lives inside the bean. The moth lays its eggs in the flower of the plant, and the eggs are incorporated into the seeds. The larvae then eat out the interior of the bean

    In the lab with germinated and dry peas along with glass beads, determining the rate of respiration in each different type of seed was the goal. The hypothesis stated that since the germinated peas were still alive, they would contain a higher rate of respiration needed to remain healthy compared to the dried peas and glass beads.…

    The purpose of this investigation was to find the average atomic mass for the element Beanium with three isotopes. The average atomic mass is the average mass of the atoms of the element divided by the total number of atoms. An isotope is an atom with the same number of protons, but different number of neutrons; they are different forms of a single element. Since we knew the isotopes had almost the same amount of sub-atomic particles, we made our hypothesis the following: If the sub-atomic particles are almost exact in amount the total mass, average mass, relative abundance, percent abundance, and the relative mass were also going to be almost exact.…

    The age of the C. maculatus specimens used is unknown, and if the beetles used were near the end of their lifespan, they would likely be less fertile and produce less eggs. Less eggs oviposited could exaggerate the apparent effect of the sunflower oil on the beans since less eggs could be produced in general. In addition, the population measured in this study was relatively small, so any variation in egg number for each quadrant would significantly affect the average. This can be seen in the slight overlap between error bars in Figure 5. The overlap between error bars implies that the difference between the categories may not be statistically significant, so further testing of the impact of sunflower oil on bean beetle oviposition should be conducted to clarify these results.…

    This lab was testing different methods to prevent bean beetles form infesting a chickpea harvest. They wanted to find something that would protect the crop from this invasive creature. To do this they created 3 replicate experiments which contained 25g of seeds each group with a different genotype, and 5 newly hatched adult C. maculatus were added to the jar. They continued to check this on a weekly basis, at the end of the experiment they found that the results where quite different for each jar, and that all of them were not immune to the bean beetle.…

    Bean Beetle Experiment

    The average amount of eggs found in both groups only have a deviation of two. Because of the size of the experiment, and the erratic, un-patterned numbers we got from both groups it is hard to discern if the music had an effect at all on the reproduction cycle. Also these results may be effected by more unknown factors; at the beginning of the experiment we were unable to discern the age of the beetles. The average life span of an adult bean beetles is 1-2 weeks. (Beck, 2013) This information, coupled with not being able to check on the progress of the experiment throughout the week, we are unable to discern if the beetles were able to live out a full reproductive cycle. The results are unclear and have potential to be highly…

    For this project we had to experiment to see the effects of blue light on a plants growth. We had to research on light and its effects on photosynthesis. This helped me with my experiment because I had knowledge for what was going on with the plants and light. For this project I and one of my classmates had to conduct a experiment to see the effects of blue light versus white light. For this project we had to grow lentil beans under white and blue light and water and measure them daily. My experimental question was what is the effect of blue light on the height of lentil beans?…
